Earlier this month PM.com started this new feature where Paul will answer a question submitted by fans every month ,I was really exited and of course sent my question,and was sure to be disapointed if he didn't pick mine,so when I oppend my mail box and saw that Paul's website has published the chosen question and the answer,I was ,like many other people,moved by that answer.Some are fans and other are not but everybody agreed that it was heartbreaking,I can't help but look at thaese two little boys faces and their smile they seemed so happy than ,but tragedy loomed.

I feel so sorry that Mary Mccartney who had such a hard life,didn't see her boy's success,and he would have loved to take care of her so she wouldn't have to work that hard anymore.

From PM.com:

"At the beginning of February PaulMcCartney.com launched 'You Gave Me The
Answer', a new feature that will see Paul answering a question from his
fans each month. We knew from our recent website survey that, given the
opportunity, you had a great number of things you'd like to ask Paul,
but we were overjoyed when only 24 hours later we had received more than
10,000 questions! After working our way through them we selected a
shortlist and let Paul choose which one he wanted to answer.

Today we're pleased to announce that the first question for 'You Gave Me The Answer' comes from Luana in Brazil:

Luana asks: "What would you do if you had a time machine?"

Paul stopped by last week to answer the question and he told us he would like to, "Go back and spend time with my mum.""

A Grammy-Winning Formula for Paul McCartney: Don’t Show Up

Would you have any interest in speaking to Paul McCartney
about the Grammy Award he won on Sunday, a publicist asked over e-mail
the other day. O.K., O.K., twist our arms, why don’t you?

Mr. McCartney won the Grammy for traditional pop album for “Kisses on the Bottom,”
a collection of his covers of standards like “It’s Only a Paper Moon”
and “Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive,” as well as new songs like “My
Valentine,” which he wrote for his wife, Nancy Shevell. It is one of at
least a few distinctions Mr. McCartney has received in a career that
includes numerous solo offerings, several albums with Wings and, before
that, his records made with a pop quartet called the Beatles.

Mr.
McCartney spoke from Britain about his Grammy victory and why, by
design, he wasn’t at this year’s ceremony. The conversation (excerpts
below) began just before 7 a.m. Friday morning, when an unlisted phone
number appeared on this reporter’s cell phone and a voice responded,
“Hello, David.”

Q.

Is this who I think it is?

A.

Yeah, sorry, this is Paul. Yeah, Paul McCartney.

Q.

[after ecstatic laughter] Good morning, how are you?

A.

You’re in a jolly mood this morning. I’m very well, thank you. How can I help you?

Q.

So you’ve just won another Grammy Award. Don’t you ever get tired of these things?

A.

Nope. You don’t get tired. It’s very nice. And the Grammys have become
more and more important, media-wise. It’s a bigger, better show. When
you look at all the people in the musical field who are up for them,
it’s gratifying to think that you’ve picked one up.

Q.

It’s been reported
that this is your first Grammy for an album of new recordings since
“Let It Be.” [Mr. McCartney has also since won Grammys for individual
songs, and the “Band on the Run” album won a Grammy for its engineer,
Geoff Emerick.] Does that sound right to you?

A.

You know what? I don’t keep count. I’m the worst on facts about me or facts about the Beatles. It’s like, “It’s 50 years to the day–”
And I go, “Oh is it?” What am I supposed to do? Keep a little diary and
watch every little event? So, no, I’m always pleasantly surprised at
these facts or these fictions. I can’t help you on that. I’m sure
there’s a million experts who could verify that. It’s nice, because I
don’t have to keep track. There’s a lot of other people who keep track
for me. It’s a luxury.

Q.

I imagine it must be gratifying to be recognized for this album in particular, which was such a departure for you.

A.

It is a completely different kind of album. I’m very pleased, also, for
the producer, Tommy LiPuma, and Al Schmitt, the engineer, they’re such
cool guys, very old school. And we had such a ball with Diana Krall.
There was a moment in the studio where we were struggling with an intro,
I think – although I must say, we didn’t struggle too much on this
album – but it wasn’t like it was all charted. We just had the chords
and the words, and we did pretty much improvisations. And there was a
moment where we were struggling with an intro – should it be this or
should we open like this? And Diana was looking a little bit worried.
And I said, “Diana, look. I’m from Britain and I’m in L.A., the sun is
shining, I’m in Capitol’s famous Studio A where Nat King Cole recorded.
Diana, I’m on holiday.”

Q.

The victory is its own reward, of course, but you weren’t at the Grammys ceremony this year. Why not?

A.

We started to get a theory that when you don’t go, that’s when you win.
But Nancy likes the event, and I do too, because she does. In some
ways, it’s better than the Oscars – the Oscars are great and
super-important, but the Grammys is like a really cool concert and you
get some very good performances. But this is what happens: We went a
couple of times and sort of sat there, and graciously accepted defeat.
With that moment you look for at the Oscars or the Grammys, when the
cameras go to the people who didn’t win, and they’re smiling wonderfully
and applauding. “And the winner is – John Mayer!” And you go: [through
clenched teeth] “Oh, wonderful. How wonderful. What a good singer.”
Secretly you’re thinking, “He’s not as good as me though.” It’s a very
human moment.

This year I was actually presenting at the Baftas,
they’d asked me to present a film music award that night. And then
coming home from that, I got a text saying “You’ve won a Grammy.” So the
car was alight with triumph. Hence the theory, you mustn’t go if you
want to win. But having said that, we might go next year.

Q.

Do you have one place where you keep all your awards and trophies?

A.

No, I don’t. I’m particularly lax on that. I don’t know where they all
are. I’m just not organized. I said to someone the other day, “Would you
believe the Beatles were up for an Oscar, for ‘Let It Be,’ and we
didn’t even know we were up for it?”

Q.

Is that even possible?

A.

Well, exactly. In those days, it was. Because it was less of a global
ceremony. And the Beatles were very much in a – “Let It Be” was the time
that we were breaking up, so the news had not reached us. If you take
that as indication, how unconcerned – how unplugged – we just weren’t
plugged into that. Nowadays it’s very hard to avoid it. I don’t think
any of us ever collected all of our gold discs, to put them up on walls.
So I don’t have a trophy room. Some of them go up in my office, which I
think is an appropriate place to intimidate businesspeople. [laughs]
Which is my aim in life.

I’m very
honored to get them. I don’t organize them and catalog them. The excuse
is always – which is the truth – I’m too busy doing it. I’m talking to
you now before I go into the recording studio to record new songs of
mine. I love that – I love that I still am enthusiastic, I’ve still got
the energy and the desire to keep doing it. So the analysis has to take a
back seat.

Q.

What’s the album you’re working on now?

A.

It’s a new studio record, my new songs. I’m always writing songs and
I’ve got a bunch that I want to record. I’ve been working with a variety
of producers, and today I’m actually working George Martin’s son,
Giles. I’m actually just going down the road to the studio. I’m just
going to pull over, have a little walk down the road, pull into the
studio and start thrashing about on my guitar.

“Cut Me Some Slack,” which I did with the Nirvana boys, will be on Dave
Grohl’s album. That’s his project. He just rang me up, said: “Do you
want to come over for a jam? I’m working on this project about the old
Sound City days.” I was in L.A., so I went over with my wife and two of
my daughters and they just hung, the gals, while me and Dave went over
to the studio, feeling like two little teenagers escaping. Dave got on
the drums, I got on guitar, Krist Novoselic got on bass, Pat Smear got
on guitar. I just shouted some words – [demonstrates] “Mamaaaaaaaa!” –
got into that mode. What was so lovely about it was that it really was
just, “Hey, do you want to have a jam?” It was totally organic. It was
like an improv afternoon. Really if you think about it, it should be
something that a major label would dream up. [executive’s voice] “I want
you boys to get together, and we’re going to put a lot of money behind
this.” But it wasn’t, it was just our idea and we did it in one
afternoon.

Q.

Well, you’ve got my number now. Feel free to give me a ring if you’d ever like to jam in New York.
